10 Sounds For Our Podcast

1. Bleep

• With our podcast being about swear words, we feel the bleep would be very appropriate to use. We will be using it as a form of censorship when a swear word is used. This is especially important with a school audience because we wouldn’t want to be swearing a lot without censorship. 

2. Crowd Clapping

• Crowd clapping will add excitement and hopefully keep the audience entertained. We will be using the crowd clapping as a gesture and for guests that come on the Podcast. 

3. Transition Music

• Transition music is very important to our podcast. It will be easier for our audience to keep up when we transition from one topic to another and it will create fluidity throughout our Podcast.

4. Background Music

• Sometimes hearing a lot of information about a certain topic can be boring. The use of background music is a technique we’re going to use to keep the audience engaged and interested.

5. Laughing

• We will be using the laughing effect as a comic relief. It can be an indicator when we’re telling a joke or used ironically to make a bad joke into a funny one. Television shows commonly use this technique because it makes the audience more engaged.

6. Horns

• Using horns would have a funny effect when we “cross the line” a little. For example, we may get carried away and say these swear words constantly and by using the horn we can show the audience that we are going too far. It will also give the audience a gag and comedic relief.

7. Fireworks

• The sound of fireworks tends to be satisfying so along with the crowd clapping we can add some fireworks as it will compliment the crowd clapping. 

8. Phone Ring

• A phone ring would be a good effect to the intro or we might use it to indicate an example. The phone ring will be used to make things sound smoothly or add effect throughout the Podcast.

9. Cars passing on a road

• You wake up late, and there’s traffic. You are late for work so you become frustrated so you start to swear a lot. This is a great example and we can breakdown why people use these words in moments of frustration.

10. Dropping an object on your foot

• It’s common when people stub their toe, or drop something on themselves they swear out of pain. Pain and frustration play a key role in reasons why people swear. We can use this effect and break it down as an example

In conclusion, sounds are extremely important. The way you use sounds can completely change the quality and mood of a video. We wanted to include sounds that would match with the topic of swear words. History of Swear Words wanted to use these sounds to engage and make the listeners interested.
